Hatice Karahan Quest for a New International Aid Architecture

Annotation

This book examines Turkey's success within international development cooperation and how this could create a framework for a new international aid architecture. Turkey has become a world leader in humanitarian assistance and shared an extraordinary burden in official development assistance (ODA). Its achievements are used to highlight the global failure to meet aid commitments and the increasingly permanent humanitarian problems seen in certain regions. A particular focus is given to Turkey's diplomatic and humanitarian actions, its contribution to regional stability and development, and creating a holistic aid perspective.The book aims to provide the reader with an understanding of Turkey's significant value-added contribution to the international aid architecture, gives an outline for international cooperation, and contributes to ongoing discussions within development economics, political science, and international relations.
